Via AbeBooks. Reminds me of my favorite song and video from my childhood, which has always stuck with me.

Behold our new peer upon the Earth: I think this momentous moment in animal history would be a bit better served with a little Also Sprach Zarathustra, but, alas, you still got the point.

I found this amusing: As a cleaner flits about, I ask him if he is surprised at his popularity, particularly among the young. “My God, I am the last person to know the answer to these questions,” he says, looking genuinely dismayed. “But, really, I am now thinking there is so much pressure on me [...]

The Holy Ghost Hokey Pokey

When I first heard of this, I thought it would go under the heading of “daily hilarity”, but while it is funny in theory, it’s actually sad to watch wounded people—literally physically wounded people—make such utter fools of themselves at the hands of exploitative charlatan “faith healers”: The video’s poster, more sympathetic to Christianity than [...]
